The survey is also easily accessed by going to the Archdiocese s web page (Archchicago.org) and clicking on Departments on the upper left of the page, then scrolling to Ministerial Evaluation to access our web page. There, in the middle of the page, find 360 Catholic Leadership review for priests and click on your appropriate language. Finally, follow the instructions for anonymous participation.

7 TESTAME T JEZUSA W dzisiejszej Ewangelii, Jezus żegna się ze swoimi uczniami. W perspektywie Apostołów zgromadzonych wraz z Mistrzem w Wieczerniku, najważniejsze było to, że byli z Nim, zawsze z Nim. Niestety miała nadejść chwila Jego odejścia i z tym musieli się liczyć. Wróci kiedyś i zabierze ich ze sobą, ale przedtem pójdzie przygotować im miejsce w domu Ojca. Zapowiada swe odejście tam, dokąd oni pójść jeszcze nie mogą. Dzieci, jeszcze krótko jestem z wami. Będziecie mnie szukać, ale ( ) dokąd Ja idę, wy pójść nie możecie. Żegnając się w ten sposób ze swymi uczniami, pozostawia im - a przez nich i nam, późniejszym swoim uczniom ostatnie polecenie, ostatnią wolę przykazanie miłości! O miłości tyle ich ciągle pouczał. Nie tylko słowem, ale czynem, przykładem całego życia. Uświadamiali sobie zatem, że dla Pana jest to sprawa kluczowa. Wraca Jezus do niej raz jeszcze w Wieczerniku w ostatnią godzinę pożegnalnej z nimi rozmowy przed męką w Ogrójcu i na Kalwarii. Mówi o miłości, kładąc nacisk na jej pielęgnowanie we wzajemnych braterskich stosunkach: Daje wam przykazanie nowe, abyście się wzajemnie miłowali tak, jak Ja was umiłowałem; żebyście i wy tak się miłowali wzajemnie. Po tym wszyscy poznają, żeście uczniami moimi, jeżeli będziecie się wzajemnie miłowali. To Chrystusowe nowe przykazanie miłości leży u podstaw doktryny moralnej Kościoła. Miłość bowiem w swych dziełach przetrwa wszystko, nawet śmierć. To dzięki miłości powstanie wszystko nowe, nowe niebieskie Jeruzalem. Wzywa nas Jezus, abyśmy się zdecydowanie odcięli od wszystkiego, co godzi w miłość, co ją niszczy. Miłować prawdziwie bliźnich, to znaczy czynić ofiarę z siebie samego i z tego co się posiada. By dokonywać czynów ofiarnych na rzecz drugiego, trzeba wyrobić sobie w duszy głęboko życzliwe ku niemu nastawienie. Warto się o taką życzliwą postawę modlić.
